You’re Not Scared. You’re Grieving Who You Were | EP 296

from Confident and Empowered Women

You have been telling yourself it's fear. Fear of failing, fear of starting over, fear of choosing yourself and it not working out. But what if the thing that has been keeping you stuck was never fear at all? What if it is actually grief — grief for a version of yourself you loved, a version that felt safe and familiar, even when she was quietly costing you everything? In this episode we are getting honest about what is really happening underneath the hesitation, why letting her go is not a betrayal, and how to honor who you were without letting her hold you back from who you are becoming.WE'RE GETTING INTO:✦ Why what you have been calling fear is actually grief — and why that distinction changes everything✦ The real cost of staying loyal to a version of yourself that has already finished her assignment✦ How to honor who you were without letting her hold you back from who you are becomingTIMESTAMPS00:00 Fear or Grief00:58 Podcast Community Invite01:42 What Grief Really Is02:40 Grieving Old You04:35 She Finished Her Assignment06:06 What Staying Looks Like07:55 Graduation Not Abandonment08:30 Grief as a Signpost11:16 Honor It and Keep Going11:44 Journal Prompts Plug12:48 Let Her Go Two Step15:22 Pouring Into You16:59 New Seasons New You18:42 Final Encouragement OutroTHE LET HER GO 2 STEPStep 1 — Write Her a Letter Write a thank you letter to the version of yourself you have been holding onto.
